Dinosaur What do you call a one eyed dinosaur? A Dooyathinkhesaurus Coat and hat on, heading for the door :oops:

Thanks Bio-Pace - there's real blast from the past. Anyone know it actually worked? Not that it matters, we were all wearing neon so we were probably clueless about most things. Off to check these out now, thanks.

oof! Ok those cranks are nice but seem a tad pricey for the budget build. Have a wife, 2 kids and a VW habit to support as well as this. Any others I should be looking at?

Ta Thanks for the info, much appreciated.

Ok now have the Cindercone frame to bits and have measured some stuff but remain a tad confused about what I can use to create my dream bike. I want to run this as a singlespeed - a superlight, minimalist, classic, steel framed speed machine. But, I am just a teeny bit confused about the...

teeny weeny bike!! I'm 5'10" and my Cindercone is 16" - legs are 31" and it was always comfy to ride, when its rebuilt I may change my mind.

Sarcasm Why on earth are you selling - keep it, it's lovely and you know you'll be hard pressed to ever find another as good as this one. If you do sell it you are as mad as a box of frogs. Mine will not be looking as original as that when it's done - Subaru 2.5 wasserboxer power, custom...

Wow! That's a beaut - have you posted an ad on here? http://www.tomholdermark.co.uk/KGOC/forum/index.php I got one too. :D

Pink Onzas Have hauled the same pair of neon pink onzas from bike to bike since my first Townsend in the last century!! Couldn't ride a bike without them. :D

Grips & Thumbies I think I know what you are suggesting. You swap sides and mount upside down so all pushing in with thumbs. It's also very quick to shift. Was part of the evolution of my Polaris Bike used to "compete" in the 90's :lol: Pic here, you may be able to make them out.

Grips & Thumbies Always liked the idea of Gripshift but could never afford them as an upgrade so I swapped my thumbies over and had them underbar - dead easy to use, intuitive and your hand never leave your body when changing gear - schweet!i

Mucho mucho Brilliant, knew there'd be a solution somewhere. Thanks, Paul.

Cindercone SS rebuild started and I would like to use an Aheadset but the steerer tube on the P2s is threaded and a bit short - how much/little tube/Aheadset penetration is safe (yes I know, I said penetration!!). Also Impact headset is FUBARed - am assuming I can replace with owt that will...

Kona Cindercone Cindercone into a singlespeed via the super budget Yorkshireman's route - beg, borrow, scrounge or swap.

Evening all! Or more correctly, good morning. Kona owner since 1990, before that a Townsend which would make you weep today as it was so badly equipped. The Cindercone is now down from the garage attic and being reborn as a single speed to thrash about on the hills of the Peak District...
